In addition to the Momentus XT that several others mentioned, there is also SSD caching on Intel's Z68 motherboards allowing you to designate a 20GB+ drive as an automated cache of whatever data is traveling to and from your hard drives. The effects are quite noticeable and it seems like the system is pretty smart. Plus, it is done in software that is easily updated should a more efficient algorithm be found.

The current footage is of remade Mario levels, but the plan seems to be to release completely original levels with the finished game. That could be fun, but I don't see why they need to use Mario when they could just make a 2D Portal game with the same mechanics (Jump height, running speed, enemy types) as Mario and an original art-style.

Alright, so we don't put these devices in walls and on ceilings? I still don't see how these will require the reaction you point out. If these are installed in tiny devices (Like RFID devices.) and carried in pockets or attached to keyfobs, they're going to have NO effect on the interception of radio signals unless you stick a few around your cellphone. These antennas aren't being used to paint walls, cover windows or wrap around your laptop. I think you're completely missing the point of this antenna.

It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
